Ideal Hearthfire home?

So once the world has been saved from Alduin, I think I'm going to have my main settle down, adopt a couple kids, and start up a homestead. I'm thinking (but not entirely sure) about getting Lakeview Manor for my family home, since my main is a Khajiit and I have Frostfall (so settling somewhere warm is a must), but I'm still indecisive about choosing wings. I'm looking for some opinions to help me finally decide. Here's a few factors:

  • I've got a ton of books, weapons, shields, armor, etc, and I'd like to put as much of it on display as I can.
  • I don't do much smithing, enchanting, or potion-brewing, but have the resources for it.
  • I want the place to look homey.

I'm thinking of doing Bedrooms (or not, if there are beds in the Main Hall?), Kitchen (I should just be able to place books on tables and stuff around the house, right?), and either Trophy or Storage. Any input is welcomed.

I think you NEED the west wing bedrooms and furniture to adopt/have kids move in and also have a place for thane/steward to sleep. You can put a bed in the entryway, but I've never done that and don't know who would use it.

 

Kitchen, IMHO, is "homey", but worthless for much more.

 

Storage is overkill, IMHO again, for Lakeview manor.

 

Trophy is okay, but make a save before you build it and check out the weapon plaques; I seem to recall they didn't function as I expected them to.

 

EDIT: Umm, the Trophy comment might apply to Armory. Sorry.

 

And, don't forget there's a basement as well.
